62 Chapter 3 Formatting Text and Paragraphs
3 To change the left margin, drag the left indent icon (downward blue triangle on the
left side of the ruler) to where you want the left edge of the body text to begin. To
change the left margin independently from the paragraph indent, hold down the
Option key as you drag.
4 To change the first line indent, drag the first line indent (blue rectangle) to where you
want the first line to start. If you want the first line to remain flush with the left
margin, make sure the rectangle aligns with the left indent icon. If you want to create
a hanging indent, drag the rectangle to the left of the left indent icon.
Creating Bulleted or Numbered Lists and Outlines
Pages provides pre-formatted bullet and numbering styles for creating simple or
ordered lists (outlines).
Creating Bulleted or Numbered Lists
Bulleted and numbered lists are simple lists without nested hierarchies of information
like you would see in an outline.
To create a bulleted or numbered list:
1 Place the cursor in the first line where you want to begin typing list text.
2 Click List in the toolbar, and then choose the list style that you want to use.
First line indent Right indent
Left indent
Click to make list styles
appear in the Styles
drawer.
Select a list style to apply
it to selected text.
